I very much have this. But I guess I know on some level that my actions tell them they shouldn't respect me. I have thought about what I might change to have them respect me... such as
- dressing to keep up with the Jonses'
- being serious all the time.
- being friends with people that are vipers
And then I think about it, and I realize, I don't want to change my behavior, so I am just going to have to deal with the disrespect.
